    Two motors, a battery and a radio receiver minimum

      You can do with a single motor. You don’t have to power both axles

        Don’t need a radio receiver either. Plenty of old RC cars were wired.

          Except “RC” literally stands for “remote controlled”.

          What you had were uncontrolled toy cars.

            They were certainly controlled. They just weren’t radio controlled. C cars instead of RC cars. lol

              Aah. Those things. I remember those things.

              The way you described it, sounded like the cars didn’t have controls. My brain was too tired to put it together with memories that far back.

              Thanks for the clarity. Be well.

            Is a long wire not remote?

              It absolutely is. The first TV remotes were wired to the TV. Source: am old.

              Here’s an example of a wired cable TV remote. Remote meant you didn’t need to get up to change the channel. Or for a car, it means you could walk behind it instead of pushing it manually.

        The fact y’all are having this conversation proves my point. It’s not self-evident lol. And there’s room for progress & innovation & creativity etc…

          Backup to turn one way was how they worked when I was a kid, but the also used a long cord instead of RF.

        Two motors. One to power one to steer.

          I had an RC car as a kid that didn’t have steering. When it reversed, it turned left. That was the only directional control you had. I don’t know if it only had one motor, but I imagine it did.
